    Thistle

    Here is another one of those plants we so often place in the weed category. We usually find it in an area that is not properly cared as it does not grow in barren ground. However, it is also know for its medicinal purposes, and when processed properly can be used for fodder for cows and horses. The seeds can used to make oil. And, the leaves are edible for those adventurous enough to try. I use them for images.

    It’s been a while since I mentioned anything about the Canon G12 so here is a bit of an update. There has been a learning curve and I think it’s affected my photography. I say that because I have been so focused on learning the mechanics of the camera that my vision has suffered. The more comfortable I become as a craftsman with this tool, the better I see the world around me.
